Guidelines for SemEval System Papers

This document is intended for participants in any of the SemEval shared tasks. It offers a template for how you, the author, can structure your system description paper to be as clear and complete as possible.

NOTES:

  1. Be sure to use the official stylesheet and follow the SemEval paper requirements.
  2. Your paper should stand on its own. Don’t assume that your reader is familiar with the task.
  3. This document is just a guideline for structuring your paper. You can feel free to use a different structure if it makes more sense.
  4. Some example system description papers from previous years that you can use as inspiration:
  5. We would like to emphasize the importance of analysis of your system’s behavior beyond the overall scores. There will be a best paper award to recognize system papers with strong analysis.
